...yes, ma'am...
Hey, I wish I was going somewhere to shoot todaY!
Benelli marketing...
Yeah, I'll stick with my Mossy. Just ordered a bantam wood stock for it.
Kyle Cassidy is a friend and one of my former technology students. He has an amazing breadth of interests and is weirdly innovative.
You should check out his photo book "Armed America" if you haven't already.
I remember a party at his home commemorating his scam of a main-frame computer the size of a refrigerator. The only place it would fit was the living-room.
The party was chock full of Annenberg brains discussing what color it should be painted to fit in.
...then shortly later there was the upstairs didjeridu concert with half-a-dozen participants.
Interesting people make life good.
Sighs....
I was so going to go to the range today until I discovered that all I had available to clean up the few pieces I was going to take was a bottle of Hoppes, an unopened bag of new patches and one spray can of Remoil. I could not find *any* of my cleaning supplies.
After searching in unopened boxes from the last move I broke down and did the next best productive thing. I went out and stimulated the economy. So much for this month's fun funds.
On the bright side I now have all the equipment I couldn't find in brand new form and its all in a spiffy tackle box that's to damn big to get lost. Then again that's what I thought wouldn't happen to my big orange box...

"After searching in unopened boxes from the last move..."
Was it Ben Johnson who said that "three removes equals one fire"? Or some other famous dead English guy?
In all honesty the boxes were clearly marked, 'Kitchen, Short sleeve shirts and Bathroom' but I haven't touched them since 2002. It was a very longshot chance that I had just stuck it in one of them.
